- - A 71-year-old man experienced lower abdominal pain during bowel movements for a year and was diagnosed with a giant pelvic tumor that was compressing his rectum.
- - Preoperative imaging suggested the tumor could be a leiomyosarcoma or neurilemoma, leading to a procedure where angiography was performed to manage blood flow and reduce tumor size before surgery.
- - During surgery, the tumor was successfully resected along with part of the rectum, and the diagnosis confirmed it as neurilemoma, characterized by both Antoni type A and B tissue sections.
